I’m looking at new Android phones since the battery life on my 5-year-old phone is getting quite dismal and it seems to have a lot of issues running out of RAM lately.
There just don’t seem to be very many phones with two sim slots AND a dedicated sd card slot these days. I need all of them since I have one sim for talking and texting and a separate limitless mobile broadband sim that can’t make phone calls as well as a chunky SD card that I use for photos, video, media, game roms, etc. Unfortunately most lower-to-mid-range phones just have a hybrid slot at best (while high-end phones seem to have eliminated expandable storage completely.)
Basically, I’d have to ditch the internet, having extra storage or the phone’s actual function as a fucking phone. The phones I found that do have the slots I need meanwhile somehow have worse specs than my current phone from 5 years ago
I guess I could always just carry two phones with me
yeah except that 512gb is large enough to hold every good episode of the simpsons, every episode of star trek tng and more than 500 hours of lossless music files, and what more could you possibly want on your phone
My tasteful nudes, which take up at least 1tb
But what about my SD cards
Put them wherever you put your older SD cards that have become too small to do anything with
On a more serious note there aren’t even any 512gb phones in my price range currently. I’m seeing almost nothing but 128gb with a couple of 256gb outliers, and even a few 64gb phones for some absolutely bizarre reason. Who would pick one of these things in 2024
Well in that case that sucks. There are those whacky adapters you can get that are supposed to allow you to use a sim card and a micro SD card in a hybrid slot, or you could see if one of your sim cards can’t be used as an esim, although I have no idea how those work
